This thing is so creative. Robot choice, colourful arenas, some anime story on top. Its weird that nowadays fightings degrade in things barely having any plot at all.
Indeed!! We need a renaissance. Is not that I don't like the presentation of modern fighting games, but there's just some kind of magic in the old ones, particularly the late 90's and early 00's, that has been lost.
It's not weird... it's just that the 90s (until the 00s) lived a special fg boom. A phenomenon that never was replicated again. Even though fgs regained some popularity in the 2010s, that's still infinitely below the level of popularity from back then. And that difference, along with other reasons, make the current fg market very stagnant and not much interesting, apart of the display of high quality graphics (and even so it's only few games like MK, TK, Arc Systems games, etc). Compare the evolution pace of fgs in the 90s to that of the modern fgs: even 2-3 years meant a lot in the industry. But nowadays that's just half or the full life cycle of a dlc filled modern fg. 90s fg devs made a lot with the technology they had at the time and ultra tight schedules.
in this game jin made a presence to later debut in the marvel vs capcom franchise I never would have thought that he had his own game he fights over mechs in the style of Robotech or Evangelion magnificent capcom arcade gem cheers broo geek
One out of the following, a reboot, a remaster or a remake, or a successor to this game or just a follow-up sequel, but I bet, this has a anime annotation/continuation or just a manga, this needs to have a new audience, not just be within a Capcom collection..
Won't happen, it's in a worse situation than Rival Schools and Darkstalkers... and nowadays even those two are fairly doomed. Because of Capcom's long time negligence with the brands, that look much more obscure than they were in the 90s. Handling an abandoned brand is very complicated even if one or two of its characters appeared in a popular classic mainstream game like MvC, CvS, etc.
0:39, when you wish upon a star...do help girls in medpods for a better life. 2:32, do they even look like they wear some uniform? What Earth Corps junkie does she...nevermind. Don't mind me. Just enjoying some mecha designs here and there. I'm surprised they didn't include the cyborg from the Street Fighter 2 Movie as a life-sized giant robot. 4:44, see ya. Don't forget to send me a postcard. 5:00, how is this not in SRW yet? Sentinel did a pretty good job making a toy of Blodia. It's that damn amazing. 6:42, you're also a kid...nevermi-fuck it. 14:27, I love the SSH remix of this guy's theme: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rbSolZu_Akw.html 17:00, you can still do the super attack with only one hand? SWEET! 18:00, this is giving me that Captain Power vibe tbh. 22:39, I like to call this one the laser sword!! 27:05, does anybody think this theme sounds a bit like the ending theme to Martial Law starring Sammo Hung? I get that.
The console version has a mech version of Akuma which according to lore was built by Devilotte's dad who also built the Super -8. There's a pop-up diorama of them fighting included with the Limited Edition of Cyberbots on Sega Saturn
The Blodia and Jin appear in Marvel Vs Capcom, Marvel Vs Capcom 2, and Tech Romancer (which you should play-Reika’s story is best. Daichi and Sora’s is trash) as playable besides this. Anyone looking to play this when the Capcom Fighting Collection comes out need to know if you are not good at rushdown and constantly pressuring you’re opponent, you will not be good at this game. This is one of the earliest games that really despised defensive play, and it’s unrewarding to do so. There are also a lot of things to get used to for each machine despite the way it looks when someone else plays; you will not be good without at least 10-20 hours in with each machine because they function very differently. Last Jin gets most of the attention and Devilot does too and they’re the most memorable characters. Mary from my time playing this in the Arcade was next. Hardly anyone cared about Aritera and her crybaby story. I remember playing hers and was like this is okay, but the others were much cooler.
